Mel Blanc

Staring "sharp as a wet sponge," Mel Blanc, asking the audience questions to determine if you are a genius, a whiz kid, a brain.  Produced by AFRS, Mel Blanc with his exceptional voice talent gets pretty weird and wonderful as a one-man sound effects artist.

Mel BlancMel Blanc asks that you get out a pencil and paper and answer as you go along.  Each question is given a point value and you add your points up at the end to see if you are a genius.  Most of the show's questions are about the cultural literacy of the era, such as "What date was the first Model-T Put on the market?"  But other questions are word literacy and common knowledge. 

Ten points "What is a misogynist?"

  1. One who doesn't like women,
    "Can you imagine anyone that stupid?"
  2. One who is a contentious objector
  3. A person who doesn't like massages 

Are You a Genius? is a fun and entertaining old-time radio quiz show that highlights the many voice talents of Mel Blanc.
